More about UCSF Benioff Children’s Hospital Oakland:
100 YEARS STRONG AND COUNTING
Back in 1912, Alameda County nurse Bertha Wright, social worker Mabel Weed, and a group of similarly civic–minded women founded the “Baby Hospital” that we know today as UCSF Benioff Children’s Hospital Oakland. They believed that every child – regardless of race, gender, or financial circumstance – deserved quality healthcare.
The practice of medicine has changed dramatically from when we first opened our doors, with remarkable advances in technology and improved delivery of healthcare services. Yet the moral and philosophical grounding of the founders’ mission has remained the same for every member of the UCSF Benioff Children’s Hospital Oakland team ever since.
We look forward to continued success, but we know we can’t do it alone. To help us provide a better future for children in the community and all over the world, we need people just like you.
